Charles R. Schwab launched the Schwab 1000 Index in 1991. His goal? Give investors a simple, low-cost way to participate in the growth of the country’s largest companies. The same year, Charles Schwab Investment Management launched its namesake mutual fund. Then based on demand, a corresponding ETF was launched in 2017.
